PMI

More than 1 billion people worldwide smoke and, according to the World Health Organization, there will still be more than 1 billion in 2025. But progress toward what we all desire—a world in which cigarette smoking is consigned to history—could move faster. These smokers include your neighbors, your friends, maybe even your family. So how, practically, can we do something for this large population of men and women who currently smoke and most of whom will otherwise continue smoking? Science and technology can and must address this problem. Philip Morris International (PMI) is undergoing a radical transformation of its business with the goal of offering these men and women alternative products that have the potential to reduce their risk of developing smoking-related diseases as compared to continued smoking. Our company vision is that these breakthrough products one day replace cigarettes. PMI is a multinational tobacco manufacturing company, with products sold in over 180 countries outside the United States. Until March 28, 2008, PMI was a wholly owned subsidiary of Altria Group, Inc. Since then, PMI has been an independent company, separately listed on the New York Stock Exchange (ticker symbol “PM”).https://pmiscienceusa.com/
